Watch out for VA House Bill #1386

04 Feb

It doesn’t seem to be available in print/pdf format yet but the summary provided indicates this bill HB1386 would make it possible for constitutional amendments (State of Virginia) would be posted on a website and NOT in detail in newspapers. Unless the State wishes to make sure that there is a computer and internet access in every single household (sort of like a chicken in every pot, I guess) and every single citizen knows how to use that computer to access the online documents, and those documents are always available, no crashes servers, etc., this stands a good chance of making sure that some people are NOT provided information that will directly affect them. I don’t see where this is a good thing to do. More when the actual bill is available.

I just love the Richmond Sunlight site, not only can I see the bill, I can choose to track it and put it in a list that I can quickly access to see what progress has been made.
